Hi everyone! I am new to the sight. Set to be sleeved on 2/20/13 by Dr. Weaver in Memphis, TN. I am very excited for

this new journey in my life.

Hi, Sherrichr, I'm in Memphis too! I had my surgery in Nashville (long story) a little over a week ago. I've heard wonderful things about Dr. Weaver. Welcome to the forum and best wishes on your journey. :)

I was sleeved yesterday and I'm feeling great. Just had a couple of small bites of Jello and that's all I could do. It got a little painful so I stopped. I haven't had any gas pains either. I guess that might start latter I don't know.

VSG Date: 2/13/13

Awesome!!! I am two days post surgery and it has been my most painful. Kinda like working out, day two gets ya!! Hope you continue to feel great!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
